If you have a problem with wildlife in your Washington DC home, your best option is to hire a company that specializes in District of Columbia wildlife removal only. This is a specialty business, and regular pest control companies do not use the proper techniques to solve animal problems. I have spent many years reviewing District of Columbia and Washington DC, and I recommend the following:
NOTE: If you have a dog or cat problem, call DC County Animal Services: (202) 576-6664
EnviroGuard Solution specializes primarily in removing animals from attics of homes and buildings - this includes squirrels in attics, raccoons, and rats or mice in homes. District of Columbia also has a documented problem with
bats in buildings, and EnviroGuard Solution is specially trained in bat removal. They also perform general wildlife trapping services, such as the capture and removal of skunks or opossums on the
property. Call 202-558-0650 to discuss your critter problem and schedule a same-day or next-day appointment. Click here to learn more about

When hiring a company to solve your wild animal problem, you want these features:
EnviroGuard Solution is a full-service Washington DC wildlife removal company. This is very different from a regular Washington DC pest control company. The pest control companies spray poison to kill insects. This is not at all
similar to wildlife removal. EnviroGuard Solution performs a full inspection of the home or property, and determines why the animal(s) are there, and if inside a building, how the animals got inside. All
animals (including rodents) are trapped and removed, or if possible, removed from the building using special exclusion devices. Once the animals are gone, preventative repairs are essential, and
cleanup is sometimes recommended.
Washington DC wildlife trapping - it's not as simple as it may seem. It's illegal in District of Columbia to trap without a license. Trap type is very important and there are many different types, bait is somewhat relevant, trap placement
is vital, and there are dozens of small things that are very important to know.
Safety is a concern. Then once the animal is trapped, it must be removed and dealt with in the proper manner according to District of Columbia law. We offer Washington DC raccoon removal. Read more about how to get rid of raccoons.
Animals in attics - this is our specialty at EnviroGuard Solution. Many types of animals like to live in attics. This includes squirrels, raccoons, rats, mice, bats, birds, and even possums. Critters like to go into attics for a safe place to live
and raise their young. Removing animals from attics is very complex work, partly because of the presence of baby animals. If you need Washington DC squirrel removal, we can remove all the squirrels from your attic, and seal out any future ones. Read more about how to get rid of squirrels.
Rodent control must be done in a very specific way. First off, the most important thing is that all the openings that rats and mice can use to enter a house be sealed. Then all the rodents must be physically trapped and removed.
Never, ever use poison! Most Washington DC exterminators will just use this lazy poison technique to kill rodents, and it causes more harm than good - dead stinky rats, and it doesn't solve the problem. Call us for correct Washington DC rat removal. Read more about how to get rid of rats.
Bat removal is a highly specialized task. District of Columbia is known to have colonizing bats who often live in buildings. Bats love attics. If not removed, the colony can grow to a very large size over the years. The bat droppings are often corrosive and
cause health risks. The same goes for bird droppings on or in buildings. We perform Washington DC pigeon removal and bird control. But our specialty is Washington DC bat removal. We remove 100% of the bat colony and seal the building so that it's totally bat-proof. Read more about how to get rid of bats.
If you have animals inside a house, no job is complete without proper exclusion repairs. If you simply hire a Washington DC trapper who only removes the critters, then the problem will return. You need to hire a Washington DC wildlife control company that identifies 100% of the animal entry points
into your building, and seals them shut with professional repairs. In addition, in many cases animals have left waste or contamination behind, and you'll want a company that can provide professional cleaning services. EnviroGuard Solution does both.
The above are just some of the services offered by EnviroGuard Solution. We also trap and remove animals that destroy lawns, such as moles, or digging animals. Sometimes animals like opossums will live under buildings, steal pet food, raid garbage cans, etc.
Read about how to get rid of opossums. Skunks commonly live under sheds or decks, and set up a den. We can trap and remove them without them spraying. Read about how to get rid of skunks. EnviroGuard Solution
also provides dead animal removal in Washington DC. If you need help with any other wildlife conflict, from a fox, beaver, groundhog, or any other critter, we can solve it. We also do Washington DC snake removal - most of the snakes in District of Columbia are not venomous, but
call us if you want safe removal, or read about how to get rid of snakes in Washington DC. And remember, we are a private business, not DC County Animal Control Services, so if you have a dog or cat problem, call the County at (202) 576-6664.
DC County animal services does not handle any wildlife issues.
